The review referred to Gore as "the warrior of the climate-crisis movement." The film crew followed him around the world as he gathers evidence and promotes his message that we need to pay more attention to the dangers of global warming.

The directors of the film fail to point out that Gore circles the globe in his personal fuel-guzzling jet that pollutes the air wherever he travels. On the ground he rides around in huge vehicles that drink up gasoline. He could probably stay home and make his pitch on social media and be just as effective.

However, Gore's carbon footprint at home seems to be an inconvenient measure of his desire to save the planet. His Nashville estate consumes 21 times as much electricity as the average American. Gore also owns two other homes.

According to the National Center for Public Policy Research, a conservative think tank, Gore guzzled more electricity in one year than the average American family uses in 21 years. Some months it's higher. The report also states that he uses enough electricity just heating his pool to power six average households for a year.

Apparently, Gore hasn't warmed up to the idea that his rhetoric on climate change smacks of hypocrisy.
